    IDE to USB. IDE cables can't be more than about 18 inches long. USB can be much longer.

    most ide-usb converters seem to need a seperate power supply. What is the easiest way to cope with this?

    Figure out what voltage range they work from (usually 12V) and get a voltage regulator to match.
